So I will go with the upcoming Disc Dog Trials on Dec 18th here in Truro at the Agridome, I am actually pretty stoked about this. Especially after Storm's last disc dig trial in Norton NB, for more details on the last trial see Tamara's blog http://smartpupsdogsports.blogspot.com/2011/11/slick-quick.html. Storm had a great morning trial and a pretty good afternoon trial in Norton and I am hoping he does as well at the Agridome on the 18th. There is also a possibility that Blurr will attempt his RPT...we will wait till the day of to decide on that as he isn't ready today but 2.5 weeks is a long time in his world and he might be by then. Jessica has no intention of going after Storm's record of failed attempts.
Storm seems to really love playing disc and now with his RPT out of the way he is planning on racking up some points! Tamara at 13 has a great consistent throw in the 20 - 30 yard range indoors. We are hoping to get another Q on the way to his BDD title and hopefully a couple more Bronze ribbons! Tamara was considering entering the Freestyle competition but has decided to wait till she is a little more confident with Storm for this. Storm should also break the 100pt mark to get his DD title as well during this trial so that will be exciting as well. No pressure Tamara I am sure you and Storm are gonna do great. Hopefully we can get him returning with the disc nice and fast at this trial. Would be nice to get 5 throws a round in single disc.
Be sure if you are in the Truro Area to stop into the Agridome on the 18th to see some of the best Frisbee dogs in the Maritimes have a great time
I gotta say I am really enjoying Disc Dog far more than I imagined I would. It is actually rather exciting to watch. I am also pretty excited that it looks like next year I will likely be doing some competing with Blurr in single disc and furthest catch. But that will have to wait until after Blurr turns 1 in September. Who knows you may even see me doing some agility in the future... should be funny if nothing else.
So here is a question for my readers, what do you do with your dogs? Are you involved in dog sports? What ones? What have you tried and what do you like about your sport of choice. If you are not involved in dog sports and you have a dog...what is holding you back? It is so rewarding to spend time with your furry friend and as long as you are not too competitive you both will have lots of fun. I gotta say the people we have met on our journey into dog sports have been wonderful and supportive, and I am glad to have met them and call them my friends.
Sorry this blog is a little lame....I wanna try to keep writing at least every couple of days and some days I might not have much to say....but if I don't write I'm fairly sure I won't keep it up.
Till next time
Trevor
